• Automate operations for reuse across the world's largest companies, taking into consideration the complexities of distributed systems
• Collaborate with development teams to design service architecture, documentation, playbooks, policies and operational procedures
• Analyze incidents and events, and establish what the reason behind the reasons are, and what structural improvements can be made to minimize the chance of them reoccurring
  
  

What we are looking for in you

• Exceptional academic track record from both high school and university
• Undergraduate degree in a technical subject or a compelling narrative about your alternative chosen path
• Confidence to respectfully speak up, exchange feedback, and share ideas without hesitation
• Track record of going above-and-beyond expectations to achieve outstanding results
• Extensive knowledge of cloud computing concepts, technologies & operation
• Practical knowledge of Linux networking, routing, and firewalls, internet transit and large scale/bandwidth networking.
• Experience dealing with significant production outages, incident response and postmortems
